I know thw NPC shops are on homeworlds, but is there a site that lists there specific location? It's not like it is a security risk. Would be very useful. If not if any one knows the exact location of a NPC shop let me know and I will put together a list in the traders lounge for future use.

How do we re-enter a shielded planet (Tattooine had no shop in the spaceport where I spawned)? I ascended from the spaceport, traveled over Mos Eisley, but when I descended to use the shop, I'm blocked by shielding.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I don't know if I did the correct thing or not, but I messaged the leader of the faction owning the planet?/sector? etc, asking permission.

In order to get through a shield you need to be given permission by those that are in control of the planet. Which essentially means you need to contact the faction that owns the planet which you have done.

However, those that own the planet do not have to give you access and overall it depends on the planet, faction and why you want to get through their shield. Though it is always a good idea to ask to make sure which you have done.

Thank you Coran! It seems I've followed the correct protocol in this event. I'll wait and see if I'm given permission to shop. It is kind of awkward that a racial spawn point is controlled by a player-run faction rather than Darkness, but no matter. There's a whole galaxy out there to shop from. =)
